Hi @Tinks don’t put up with itching, Zyrtec is the best. Hmmmmm, hard to say otherwise, I did everything I was told to! I personally found Dermeze worked best on the worst bits..solugel would dry out and rip the scabs off OUCH. I know I had a bad reaction to rads , mostly people seem to be ok. If however the pain is really bad or your skin is in bad shape (mine was beetroot red and ulcerated) :s I would send a pic of it to my radiation onco ASAP. I took too long to do this , and was miserable. But he rang me straight back and got me some serious meds and to come straight in and see a nurse ...all this in a time where the hospital was discouraging people to come in due to the virus which shall not be named. Insist on seeing a nurse after your rad session if you are at all worried. Hope this makes sense. X
ps dermaid was the cortisone cream they recommended. Helped a little. Try Zyrtec if it doesn’t work for you.
